Detex 104051-4 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex 104051-4 top rod kit work on a standard 7-foot door?
No. The 104051-4 top rod kit is sized for 8-foot door heights, so the rod length is wrong for a standard 7-foot opening. On a 7-foot door you need the standard-length V50 top rod instead. Order the 8-foot kit only when the leaf itself is 8 feet tall.
2) Which Detex exit devices does the 104051-4 top rod kit fit?
It is made for the Detex V50 Series vertical rod exit device only. It is a factory replacement top rod assembly for that series, not a universal rod, so it should not be used to service another Detex series or another brand's vertical rod device.
3) I'm replacing a worn top rod on a V50 device. Is this the whole rod assembly or just the rod?
The 104051-4 is supplied as a top rod kit, meaning the rod plus the associated hardware for the top vertical rod assembly on a V50 Series device. It covers the top rod only, so if the bottom rod is also worn or damaged you will need the matching bottom rod part as a separate order.
4) Is this a genuine Detex part or an aftermarket rod?
Genuine Detex OEM. The 104051-4 is Detex's own replacement top rod kit built to the original V50 Series specification, which matters on an exit device because a non-factory rod can throw off the latch timing at the head strike.
5) Do I have to remove the whole V50 exit device to install the 104051-4 top rod?
No full device replacement is needed. The kit is built as a drop-in service part for existing V50 Series hardware, so the repair is limited to swapping the top rod assembly and resetting it to the head strike. That is why maintenance crews use it to bring a device back into service instead of buying a new exit device.
6) Can I use this Detex top rod kit on a residential door?
It is a commercial-duty part for commercial vertical rod exit device installations, typically offices, schools, healthcare, warehouses and municipal buildings running V50 Series hardware. It is not intended for residential doors, and 8-foot exit device leaves are rare in housing anyway.
